<hr />
<p>HTML helper, for easy generating and manipulating a DOM structure. 
  Little or no validation is done.</p>
  <p>Behaves like a dictionary regarding updating of attributes. Behaves 
  like a list regarding inserting/appending components.</p>
  example:
<pre class="literalblock">
   &gt;&gt;&gt; DIV('hello', 'world', _style='color:red;').xml()
   '&lt;div style=&quot;color:red;&quot;&gt;helloworld&lt;/div&gt;'
</pre>
  <p>all other HTML helpers are derived from DIV.</p>
  _something=&quot;value&quot; attributes are transparently translated 
  into something=&quot;value&quot; HTML attributes<br /><br />
